Copying Previous Online Forms Submission

Clicking this button will pre-fill the current form with the previously submitted data. The user can then change the fields as necessary before saving / submitting.
Updating Online Forms Payment Options
We’ve updated the options when configuring payment options for Online Form submissions. You can now select whether an item is a “Single” or “Multi” item product”:
For single item products, users will not be able to change the quantity. Instead, depending on whether the product is mandatory (or optional), there will be a check box to include/exclude the item during submissions:
You can also enter negative amounts for discounts.
Payment Options for Admissions
We’ve made the Online Payment Options for Online Forms also available in the Admissions module. However this feature is only available on the Public Form (which is shared with parents via email):
The embedded form does not yet support Online Payments. We’ll prepare a more detailed description on how this works in a future article. Stay tuned.

The Documents tab on the student record in now sortable by Upload Date, Mailed Date, Comments and Physical Location. Just click on the header to sort:
